I was scheduled for a 2:00 appointment on 02/22/2021 for a pulmonary function test. I had even received an email confirming the appointment the week prior. When I arrived for my appointment the receptionist told me they had called and left a message cancelling the appointment. I had never received such a message or phone call. I verified that they had my correct phone number on file, and they did. No excuse for not calling or emailing to cancel the appointment! To add insult to injury, I had to pay $5.00 for parking for this non-appointment. The receptionist seemed completely unperturbed by this snafu, and told me to go to another address where they could do the test. She didn't give me a referral, contact name or bother to get an appointment for me. Thinking the address was for another location for the same practice, I drove there. Turned out it was Sibley Hospital. Not having a referral or appointment or even what department to look for -- and not wanting to wait around with sick people, I decided to leave and go home. This shouldn't happen to anyone, especially someone like me, who has ALS and has difficulty getting around.

I've recently been plagued with lower GI issues so I was referred to Capital Digestive by a good…read morefriend. However, they apparently merged with Metropolitan. My initial office visit and consultation was with Dr. Jessica Korman at 10215 Fernwood Road, Bethesda location - was very unsettling, and to make it even worse, she was 1.5 hours late. *Note - this practice does not validate your parking ticket* Then, Dr. Korman rushed through my medical records I'd brought with me, she told me nothing I couldn't have found on WebMD. It seems her sole purpose was to get me scheduled for a colonoscopy and an endoscopy, yet she never once during our 7 minute consultation examined me - not even lifted up my blouse and touched my stomach. So it begs to wonder why she wanted to do an endoscopy to begin with. Needless to say, the appointment I scheduled for the upper and lower procedures - I cancelled as soon as I got home. Maybe the other Doctors in the practice were better - but I was too scared to find out. I decided to go with a GI doc from Johns Hopkins and she was did a complete workup before she scoped me, found the problem in my lower GI and now I'm good as new.

Magic! That's what happens when you're willing to waiting 3-4mos to see a great endocrinologist. I found the best thing in Bethesda: her NP Regina who examines every number, every report, every image & asks questions. She knows what Dr. Admed wants to see on that 1st visit & meanwhile she fixes everything else & gets you ready. When I saw Dr. Shabina Ahmed 1st time last Tues: labs, ultrasound & needle biopsy results done, thyroid nodules benign!! Success but Dr. Ahmed still spent an hour going over all my questions.

When I first started seeing a physician at Jivana Care the care was fine. It wasn't until the…read morepractice moved to a new building that I started having issues with JC. There seems to be a disconnect between the patient portal and the admin staff. Every time I paid my co-pay online, the admin office would still ask me for a co-pay when they called to verify my appointment. This was the first issue that tipped me off. There was another time it took so long for me to received lab results that the problem became more severe and I had to go to Urgent Care for medical attention. The most recent issue took place when I was in the office of a specialist and they received the wrong order from Jivana Care in order to examine me. The front desk of the specialty office called JC a couple times. 30 minutes later they had not received the order from JC. Then I called JC and JC said the order was already sent. I kept JC on the phone while the front desk of the specialty office checked their system and they still did not see the corrected order. After the front desk checked again and didn't see the order, JC told me they would send the order. Another 30 minutes later, I had not received the order. At this point, I had been waiting for JC for over an hour. So I went to the JC office, like I've had to do before in order to retrieve an order. I'd had issues getting into the office before so I wasn't suprised when I had issues this day. The elevator was broken and there was no way for me to get upstairs. I then pushed the Ring-like doorbell they asked visitors to use if the elevator didn't work. I rang the bell a couple times and finally received a text message telling me that JC contacted the doctor in order to process my request, even thought when I was at the specialty office I was told the doctor had already created the order. After feeling like the practice dismissed me with a text and sent me on a wild goose chase, unnecessarily, I decided to find a new primary physician. I submitted my request a week before Christmas and the JC still has not forwarded my medical documents to my new physician. Also, when I called to request my medical records I was told that I would need to pay a fee to get my records. I didn't care and was willing to pay any fee to move on to a new practice. After that call, I was told I had to go to the office to submit the request form to transfer my records, and when I did, they didn't mention anything about paying a fee to transfer records. To date, my medical records have not been transferred to my new primary care physician, and I am VERY eager to move on. Unfortunately, I wouldn't recommend this practice.
